I used to be a competitive swimmer. Now I am much older, I start swimming again just for fitness and I would like to set a goal for myself. My goal is to swim 1 mile of breastroke (breastroke is my specialty) daily; it takes me 35 minutes to swim 1 mile. My question is what is the average time to swimm 1 mile of breastroke? Thanks

  • Just did an open-water swim for fun, held by a local triathlon group as a training run. Course was .6 miles per loop. I did the second loop breaststroke just to compare it to my freestyle, for fun. Free lap was 20 minutes, *** lap was 24. Very choppy, wavy and lots of current that day. Drank lots of sea water on the freestyle loop, but swimming breaststroke through all the waves was heavenly!
